Congrats to the Cats! I have to say I am totally shocked after watching them play earlier this year at home vs. Shoemaker. Although it was a game they won, and played well, played hard, etc. I just didn't think they looked like a team good enough to win a playoff game so much as win a playoff game. Congratulations to them again for continuing to improve and get better with each outing. Best of luck to them this weekend!
Congratulations to the Cats on a terrific season. I woke up and checked the paper first thing Saturday morning to see if they had won Friday night.
It was a shame as I drove around town Saturday morning that there was no sign of the success the team has had anywhere around town. No painted cars or storefronts wishing the team well, etc. I am not sure the city of Temple wants a winner, or cares when they do. So sad considering the success of this years team and all the hard work they put in.
Agreed on that Crusaders..and should I be surprised that they brought in a coach to move from the wing-t to the one back from the staff of the *gasp* 1992 state championship team? I mean seriously??? Do you have to either be from here, or played, or previously coached here to be here? I'm just asking. Think outside the box.
I saw him (Taylor) and his son(?) being shown around our halls. I KNEW I knew that guy, knew he was a coach, but until you said his name, didn't connect the two.
Monsen has to do something because the Wing-T aint cutting it in that district. Teams have too good of talent and can just load up the box. Especially when you don't have a HS all american to hand it to on the hand sweep
